PC randomly disconnects (when on Youtube), can't reconnect

Hello everyone,

For about a month now, my pc randomly disconnects from the wi-fi network (my home network) I was connected to, mostly (actually almost exclusively) when I am on Youtube watching videos. Sometimes it happens after 10 min, sometimes after 2h. I can't reconnect to any available wi-fi network in range, and can only regain connection and internet after restarting my pc. Other devices connected to the network don't have any problems.

Open up a Command Window and enter the following command: netsh wlan show all

That will give you everything you need to know. Usually a poor connection can be due to congestion on that channel, weak radio in the Access Point, or too far away and your laptop keeps wanting to find a better connection.
